Three era-jumping jazz dramas that trade lectures for lived-in clubs, backstage romance, and late-night solos
About this Event

10/7 - 7 PM | Round Midnight (1986) (2 HR)

Dexter Gordon’s Oscar-nominated turn anchors this smoky, late-1950s tale of a fragile sax genius rebuilding life in Paris’s expat jazz scene. Real players (Gordon, Herbie Hancock & friends) bring lived-in authenticity; long takes linger on ballads that say what words can’t. At heart: how friendship, listening, and small rooms kept modern jazz alive between continents.
